The Chicago White Sox defeated the Mariners seven times in eight games this season and 18 times in the last 21 between the clubs. To reverse such misfortune, the Mariners will hand the ball Sunday to Kevin Millwood, who doesn’t have a single number stacked in his favor. Millwood is 0-3 with a 4.85 ERA in six career starts at U.S. Cellular Field, 4-10, 4.29 overall in 2012, and 1-6, 4.68 in his last 15 outings.

Millwood, coming off a no-decision in which he allowed three earned runs on five hits in 6.0 innings, will oppose RHP Gavin Floyd, whom the Yankees roughed up over 2.1 innings last Monday. A closer look:

Millwood twice won 18 games in a season, going 18-7 for the 1999 Braves and 18-8 for the 2002 Braves. Millwood led the National League in starts with 35 in 2000, led the NL in shutouts in 2003 with three, led the American League in ERA in 2005 at 2.86, and the AL in losses in 2010 with 16.

Millwood represented Atlanta in the 1999 All-Star Game.

During his American League career, Millwood made 24 starts against the Mariners, posting an 8-13 record with a 4.91 ERA.

Millwood signed with the Mariners Jan. 24 as a free agent, and earned the fifth spot in the rotation with a strong performance during spring training.

MARINERS / STATS NOTES

  • CURRENT ROAD TRIP: Three at Chicago White Sox Friday-Sunday, four at Minnesota Twins Monday-Thursday.
  • MARINERS VS. WHITE SOX: Mariners 181-219 all-time vs. the White Sox, including 43-72 at U.S. Cellular Field. Mariners played a three-game series vs. Chicago at Safeco Field April 20-22 and were swept; played a three-game series at U.S. Cellular Field June 1-3 and lost two.

  • LOG: Mariners are 1-7 against the White Sox this season and have lost 18 of the last 21 played between the clubs . . . One day after colliding in the ninth inning Friday, neither Michael Saunders nor Eric Thames were in Seattle’s lineup Saturday (Thames pinch hit in the eighth inning). Saunders and Thames bashed into each other trying to catch a Paul Konerko drive to right center, but the ball popped out of Thames’ glove, resulting in a 9-8 walk-off win for the White Sox. Chone Figgins played center in place of Saunders and Casper Wells occupied right in lieu of Thames. “Thames is OK. Saunders has a little bit of a  groin (problem),” manager Eric Wedge said . . . Seager’s solo shot in the ninth inning Saturday was Seattle’s 113th home run of 2012 — four more than the Mariners hit in all of 2011 . . . The Mariners are also on a pace for 95 road home runs, which would be the most away from Safeco Field since 2000, when they had 106 . . . Due to conflicts with Seahawks football coverage, three Mariners games will be broadcast on KTTH 770-AM instead of 710 ESPN Seattle: Sept. 9, 16 and 30.
